An Olympic high diver has gravitational potential energy because of her height. As she dives, kinetic energy becomes of her energy just before she hits the water.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy possessed or acquired by an object due to a change in its position when it is present in a gravitational field. In simple terms, it can be said that gravitational potential energy is an energy that is related to gravitational force or to gravity.

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, observable as the movement of an object, particle, or set of particles.

When the high diver is standing stable and not moving , that diver has a gravitational potential energy because of the height . The moment she dives , before hitting the water , from being stationary she gained some momentum and come in motion , due to motion her gravitational potential energy will change to kinetic energy before hitting the ground.

A Carnot heat engine has an efficiency of 0.200. If it operates between a deep lake with a constant temperature of 293.0 K and a
Dimas [21]

Answer:

366 K

Explanation:

T₀ = Constant Temperature of deep lake = 293.0 K

T = Temperature of hot reservoir  connected to carnot engine = ?

η = Efficiency of Carnot engine during the operation

Efficiency of Carnot engine is given as

\eta = 1-\frac{T_{o}}{T}

Inserting the values

0.200 = 1-\frac{293.0}{T}

T = 366 K
